Let Time and Chance combine, combine!
More quotes by Thomas Carlyle
Speech is human, silence is divine, yet also brutish and dead: therefore we must learn both arts.
No sadder proof can be given by a man of his own littleness than disbelief in great men.
The great law of culture is: Let each become all that he was created capable of being.

Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind,
And therefore is wing'd Cupid painted blind.
To fear love is to fear life, and those who fear life are already three parts dead.
Not for the body, but for the heart; companion and company are needed.
Love seldom haunts the breast where learning lies,
And Venus sets ere Mercury can rise.
